Germany gets 300 million Euro boost for electric bus sales

The European Commission recently approved 300 million Euro of additional state funding in Germany, which combined with previous state funding brings the total amount to 650 million Euro.

Germany intends to use the funds to incentivize electric bus orders within two years (by the end of 2021): “The German aid scheme will apply until the end of 2021 and is intended to cover the additional costs for the purchase of electrically operated or rechargeable hybrid buses instead of conventional diesel buses and the establishment of the charging infrastructure required to operate these buses.”
